The yalue of the purchase to fnglind is great, and pProbebly will be taken by the public to ean more than it does.

The vantage of the bargain materially is a secondary question, The purchase was made for political rea- fons, therefore the importance of the step is hardly to be overrated.

TRIAL OF CHIEF CLERE AVERY—AN ATTEMPT TO IMPLICATE 6EO- BETARY BRISTOW—MORE LIGHT ON WAYS THAT WERE DARK. % Sr, Louis, Mo., Nov. 26, 1875, ‘The case of William ©. Avery was resumed this morning In the United States Court, and the evidence elicited during the day is considered quite strong against the defendant. The government attorneys are sanguine of success, and claim that the proof ts already overwhelming, The reference to Secretary Bristow’s reputed connection with a Louisville liquor house had been the subject of much gossip and scandal, the Tingsters endeavoring to create the impression with the public that Bristow’s skirts are not clean by any means. Sehon D. Thorpe, ex-storekeeper, was the first wit- ness. Tho buik of his testimony was sub- stantially such as he gave at the McDonald trial He said Joyce frequently showed him a letter, which purported to be either from Avery or Babcock, relative to crooked whiskey; the letters were always of the same assuring character; he was frequently informed that the parties to the Ring were Joyce, McDonald, Ford, Gunther, McKee, Newcomb» Patrick, Avery and other officers in Washington not named; witness met Avery at Macklot, at Thompson’s distillery, im company with Fitzroy and Cropsy in the fall of 1872 or 1873; they went through the distillery and then left; showed him the signature of the Avery letter; Fitzroy’ once showed a letter bearing Avery's signature. AVERY AND BABCOCK. Alfred Bevis, one of the crooked distillers, testified that it had always been his understanding that Avery and Babcock were members of the Ring; Joyce fre- quently showed despatches and letters purporting to come from Avery and Babcock notifying the Ring of the coming of agents; when Brooks, Hague and Gavitt came here the distillers knew before they started that they were about to make a raid in the West. In April, 1875, $5,000 was raised at two different times and paid to Genoral McDonald and Joyce wo be taken to Washing- ton; witness met Avery in St. Louis one Sunday even- ing, in 1872, with Fitzroy; both of them accompanied him to his home, where they had wine, A despatch came to St. Louis from Mr, Barnes, of New York, about four days before the seizure in May, announcing that “lightning would strike.” The telegram was sent to the house of Torlina, Andres & Co., of St. Louis, Barnes was a travelling agent for the house of Now comb, Buchanan & Co., of Louisville, who seemed to know all about it Barnes had just been to Washing- me A COLLAPSED SENSATION. ‘The witness created a great sensation by stating here that he had been told that Secretary Bristow was a part- ner in the Louisville firm referred to, Governor Henderson, counsel for the government, asked witness who told him this, He replied first that ho didn’t like to state, and then that he didn’t remem- ber who it was, Governor Henderson told witness that he did very wrong in making any such statement unless the infor- mation came to him from some member of the Ring. Judge Krum, attorney for the defence, said there were other pings than the St. Louis Ring. Mr. Henderson replied that if the defence would show that Secretary Bristow was a member of the Ring the prosecution would have him indicted at once, A TREASURY CLERK'S INTEGRITY, J. F. Joseph, a clerk in the office of the Secretary of the Treasury, testified that in 1872, at Avery’s request, he sent him to St, Louis to investigate reported irrogu- Jarities m the accounts of Gunther; Avery came here and reported the accounts “all right some time in Do- comber, 1872; he met him on the stroet in Washing- ton aad he rémarked that Joyce was going to send them a Christmas present of $100 each; in Feb- ruary, 1873, Avery came into his room in the Treasury Department, and handed witness a package containing a $100 dill; witness immediately notified Avery that he was going to return the money to Joyce, and at once bought a draft for that purpose and sent it to Joyce at St, Louis; he reported the matter to Deputy Commissioner Rogers, who spoke to Avery about Avery said he was going to return the $100 bill; the Dill was folded in a little wad about one inch square, and wrapped in a paper bearing the name of witness; Rogers reported the matter to Commissioner Douglas, and Joyce was at once telegraphed to come vo Wash- ington; Joyce came and saw Mr. Douglas, and witness was auable to learn what explanation He gave about sending the money ; Joyce told him he bad arranged it satisfactorily with Commissioner Douglas, TELEGRAMS TO AND PROM WASHINGTON, Lucien Eaton, one of the government attorneys, then introduced and read the following telegrams, which carry their own construction :— Wasixarox, D.

FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. THE LINE OF SUCCESSION TO THE PBRESI- DENCY—DEFECTS IN THE LAW. Wasuincron, Nov. 26, 1875. ‘The question who should become President in the emergency of vacancies in all the four offices of Presi- dent and Vice President of the United States, President of the Senate and Speaker of the House, was, it appears, asubject of attempted Congressional legislation in the excitement following the assassination of ‘Abraham Lincoln and the impeachment of Andrew Johnson, The defects of the law of 1792 were, at that time as now, perceived. In view of a remote and improbable but possible contingency such as the law should cover it was proposed to amend the act of 1792 so as to pro- vide that, in caso of the four vacancies above specified, the Chief Justice of the United States, and after him the Associate Judges of the Supreme Court in the ordor of their semority of appointment, should become Pres- ident, A bill to this effect was proposed in Congress, Indeed, some go so far as to assert that the bill passed both houses of Congress and became a law, but there is no record of it to be found in the documents of Congress for the past sixteen years, Even if it had bech en- acted, as is asserted, it would now be nall and void for the reason that it was not codified into the last Revised Statutes of the United States, and being omitted there- trom would, under the law of 1873, stand repealed. There {s no way now ot supplying tho defeet of the law of 1792 other than by special act of Congress declaring the line of succession to the Presidency, and making it long enough to obviate the remotest probability of such. an emergency as has been suggested by the death of Vice President Wilson. GENERAL COWAN ON THE OSAGE INDIAN RING. General Cowan, Assistant Secretary of the Intertor, says he knows nothing of the removal of Enoch Hoa: but he thinks that the Osage Indian Ring is rotten, While he was acting Secretary he ordered the Quakers to remove Agent Gibson, of the Osage Agency, without delay. The Governor of Kansas has beon opposed to Hoag for some time and the people of his State are de- termined to crush the Osage Ring, with whom, {t is claimed, Hoag is working. ABRIVAL OF QUAKERS. Three well known Quakers—Ben Tatham, of New York; James E. Rhoads, of Philadelphia, and William Nicholson, of Kansas—arrived here to-day on business connected with the Kansas Indian troubles, ATTEMPTED MURDER OF A CONTRACTOR. Commissioner Smith received a despatch to-day from Saville, agent at Red Cloud, to the effect that Bosier, the notorious beef contractor, had been shot at by the Indians. ‘ ; GENERAL WASHINGTON DESPATCHES. THE TARIFF ON FISH—ALLEGED VIOLATION OF THE TREATY OF WASHINGTON, Wasuinaton, Nov. 26, 1875. The correspondence between the United States and Great Britain, alluded to in the Ottawa despatch of to, day, has reference to that part of the Treaty of Wash- ington which’ provides for the free !mportation, by either country, of fish of all kinds, excopting fish pro- served in oil Congress, however, in amending the tariff, provided that all foreign caught fish imported otherwise than in barrels or half barrels shall pay fifty cents per 100 pounds. The Canadiang contend that this duty is in contravention of the Treaty of Washington, The Secretary of the Treasury somo time ago (the subject having been officially brought to his attention) said that his duty was to follow the law, and that the remedy was with Congress. It ts, thero- fore, probable that this subject will be presented by the President to the consideration of that body, INDIAN MOVEMENTS. Curyvenya, W. T., Nov. 26, 1875, Colonel Stanton arrived, from the agencies last night, and reports extremely cold weather north. The escort suffered considerably. Captain Pollock’s command has evacuated the Black Hills and arrived at Fort Laramie to go into quarters, Hyndreds of miners were met going into the Black Hills, which are now unoccupied by the military. California Joe, after being released upon a charge of murdering an old man named Richard and his nephew, was rearrested at Red Cloud for attempted murder of his partner and placed in the guard house at Camp Rob- inson. He escaped the same night, notwithstanding that a number of shots were fired at him by the guard, and is now at large. A number of persons have been arrested for selling whiskey at the agencies, and are coming to Cheyenne under guard for trial. J. 8. Haskings, the newly appointed agent of the Sioux Indians, arrived here to day en route for the Red Cloud Agency. INDIAN TROUBLES IN NEW MEXICO. Cimarnox, N. M., Nov. 26, 1875, The Indian situation here is still serious, The government has demanded the delivery to the civil authorities of the Indians engaged in the shooting at the Agency. Thus far the Indians have failed to comply, and their rations have been stopped at the Agency. Captain McClave’s company of the Eighth United States Cavalry is hore, and the citizens are arm- ing in anticipation of further ovtbursts. Captain Allison's company of volunteers, and irom 200 to 300 citizens will also take the field in caso of further hostilities. The Apaches are camped in the mountains to the number of 250 warriors and ex- pect reinforcements from the Utes. Their women and children have been sent away. Interior De- partment haye sent orders to the agent to turn over the control of the Indians to the military. The citizens, with few exceptions, are urging the removal of the Indians to reservations to prevent fur- ther deprodations. THE TEXAS AND PACIFIO RAIL- ROAD. Sr. Louis, Mo., Nov. 26, 1875; Those members of the committee, appointed by President Matthews, of tho National Railroad Conven- tion, to draft memorial to congress for aid in the construction of the Texas and Pacific Railroad, still remaining in the city met at the Southern Hotel to-day and elected James 0, Broadhead, of St, Louis, Chair- man, and Judge Kennard, of New Orleans, Secretary, Resolutions were adopted requesting the chairman to obtain proof sheets of the address to the people of tho United States, to be prepared by President Mat- thews, and forward them to members of the committeo for information or comment, and authorizing the chairman to convene the committee at his discretion, three members to constitute a quorum at any such meeting; requesting the chairman to appoint a sub- committee, of which he shall be a member,to appear at their discretion bofore proper committees of the Senate and House of Representatives to explain and advocate the measures adopted by the convention, and authorizing the chairman of the committee to append the name of each member of the committee to the ad- dross of President Matthews when completed, ‘The committee then adjourned, subject to tho call of the chairman. RECENT NEW ENGLAND FAILURES, Ewe Nov. 26, 1875, Tho Commercial Bulletin ropStts the following :— The heaviest creditor of Royal, Silkey & Co., the failed coal and lumber firm of Watertown, Mass., is said tobe the Fitchburg Ratlroad’Uompany. The Eastern Railroad Company will also pfobably suffer consider- ably, and large lumber dealers North apd East from whom the firm derived its immense supply will algo sustain heavy losses. It is said that Pennsyivania coal dealers are also involved to a greater or lesser extent. Of the Nabi.ities of the frm some $72,000 are secured and $170,000 unsecured, The creditors of Cyrus Carpenter, furnaces and ranges, Boston, have voted to accept ten cents on tho doliar.’ The affairs of the frm will probably be settled under the composition clause of the Bankruptey law at this rate.

CHIEF JUSTICE WAITE DECLINES TO CONSIDER ANY SUGGESTION AS TO HIS BEING 4 CANDI- DATE FOR THE PRESIDENCY—A VERY DIGNI- FIED BEBUKE ADMINISTERED. Toxxpo, Nov. 26, 1875. ‘The Commercial of to-morrow morning will contain an article on Chief Justice Waite and the Presidency, embracing an extract from a private letter from that gentleman, in answer to one from a friend urging his assent to a movement in his behalf in that connection. The Judge positively refuses such assent, and in giving his reasons therefor says:— Of course, Tam always grateful to my friends for any efforts in my behalf, and no one ever had those more faithful or indulgent. But do you think it quite right for one occupying the first judicial position in the land to permit the uxe of l#s name for a political posi- tion, The office came to me coved with honor, and when I accepted it my clief duty was not to make of it a stopping stono to something else, but to preserve its purity, and if possible make my’ name as honor- able a3 that of my predecessors. No ought to accept this place unless he shall take a vow to leave it as honorable as he found it, There ought never to be any necessity for rebuilding from below, All ad- ditions should be above. In my judgment the constitu. tion might wisely have pronibited the election of a Chief Justice to the Presidency, Entertaining such a view could I property or consistently permit my name to be used for the promotion of a political combination as now suggested? If I should do so could I at all times and in all cases remain au unbiassed judge in the estimation of the people? EVENING WEATHER REPORT.

HANS VON BULOW. / The inclement weather last evening seemed to have very little effect upon the attendance at Chickering Hall at the sixth concert of Hans Von Bilow. He played Rat's concerto, mC minor, opus 185, which has already been made known to the American public, a year ago, by Miss Lina Luckhardt, at a Thomas sym- phony concert, and by Mr. S, B, Sills, at a Brooklyn Philharmonic concert. Even beneath the tramed fingers of such an artist ag Von Bilow, it did not make the effect that might be desired, Tho opening allegro, is full of immengo technical dif- ficulties, which the pianist easily overcama The orchestra coiwmenced the andanse and just at that time some ladiesaiud gentlemen were being shown to their seats by an usher, Bulow at once stopped the orchestra ang compelled Dr. Damrosch to wait until what he considered as an interruption ceased. The second movement was delivered with infinite skill by the pianist and yet made no perceptible effect, on account of 1 inherent lack of inspiration, th it, only, ofthe composer, The concluding allegro, with its bold martial theme, was the feature of the work, The most pronounced success made by Bilow im his New York concerts was in the Polonaise, in BE ‘Major, by Weber, arranged for piano and orchestra b: Liszt. His peeformance of this work was wonderful It is brilliant in the extreme, and the tumultuous en- core, to which the pianist was obliged to respond, tes- tifled as to the appreciation of the audience of his playing. It was the greatest success achieved by iow in this city. He played also two works by Liszt—an étude and ‘‘Recollections of Italy.” We have already criticised them. At the matinée to-day he ro- peats last Monday night’s programme, the feature of which is the Russian concerto, by Tscharkowsky. & THEODORE THOMAS, Mr. Thomas gives a matinée concert at Steinway Hall to day with his splendid orchestra and with the following soloists:—Mme, Sterling, contralto; Mr. Carl Wehner, flute; Mr. Lockwood, harp. ‘The pro- gramme is a very interesting one, as may be seen from the subjoined:—Overture, ““Consecratior House,” op. 124, Beethoven; “Magnificat,” in D, Bach, Mme.’ Antoinette sterling; concerto, for flute’ and harp (manuscript), Mozart, Messrs, ¢, Wehner and A. Lockwood; symphony, No. 1 in B, opera 88, ‘Schumann; Lieder (a), Der Kreuzzug, Schubert; (b) Es war ein Koenig in Thule, Liszt, Mme. Antoinette Sterting; Ballet Music and Wedding Proce: sion, Rubinstein, from the opera ‘Feramors,” ne overture, “Tannliauser,”” Wagner, ACADEMY OF MUSIC. In spite of the dismal weather there was a very good house to hear the repetition of Meyerbeer’s favorite opera “The Huguenots.” The caste was the same as at the last representation, with the exception of Mlle, Pappenheim, who sang ‘Valentine instead of Mile Wagner. Wachtel’s Raoul de Maupi is so well known that it 18 unnecessary to say anything about it, except that he sings with his usual spirit and power.’ It is a pit that this excellent artist should use his falsetto so mucl instead of trusting to his own splendid natural voice. The Valentine of Mile, Pappenheim is one of the best impersonations of this thoroughly deserving singer. In the great duet of the fourth act she and Mr. Wachtel wore recalled several times, Mile, Pappenheim appeai y in Beethoven’s ‘Fidelio,”? NEWARK EDUCATIONAL BOARD. The Board of Education of the city of Newark met last night and listened to a report of the Finance Com- mittee, showing that the amount already expended is $168,116; amount of appropriation from tho’ tax on ordinance and extra appropriations, $209,70 balance available for current exrenses, $41,590; estimated expenses at the close of the fiscal year, $38,876, leaving a probable balance in thé treas- ury of $2,614, The City Superintendent of Public Schools presented communication to the Board asking for an appropriation to carry out @ programme suggested by the State Superin- tendent of Public Schoois for a proper representation of the public school system of the State at the Centen- nial Exhibition next year. The matter was referred to @ special committee of three to report at the next meeting of the Board, A resolution was adopted at the last mecting direct- ing the Sanitary Committee to take such action as they deemed necessary to check the spread of contagious and epidemic diseases. The principals of the various schools were directed to” report all such cases twice a week, AS a result of this action the committee last night reported that 168 cases of diphtheria had come to their knowledge within three weeks, They had caused the houses of such childron as had been reported to be suffering from this diseaso to be visited and disinfected, and now they considered the disease to be abating, as but about thirty cases had been reported during the past five days, ~~ OBITUARY, MOST, REV, THOMAS FURLONG, D.

Until very recently nothing had been done in Vir- ginia toward securing a collective exhibition of re- sources at Philadelphia. The last Legisiature having refused to make an appropriation for the purpose there has been no fund to aid in this object, The United States Centennial Commissioners a year ago appointed aState Board of five gentlemen (General Imboden, chairman), but for lack of funds this Board was power- less, Lately the Chamber of Commerce, Tobacco Ex- change and Corn Exchange of whis city have taken some steps toward raising funds im anticipation of an appropriation by the Legislature, and to carry out their wishes Governor Kemper has appointed an auxiliary State Board (Professor Mailet, of the Univer- sity of Virginia, chairman) to get up, arrange and classify ‘THK NATURAL PRODUCTS of the State. By agreement, these two boards have divided their labors so as to work in barmony and without conilict, General Imboden’s Board, being the aceredited organ of the United States Commission in the Stato, take charge of the business of procuring space, &c. at Philadelphia for the State collective exhibition an also for private exhibitors; and to induce as far as they can individuals to participate in the Exhibition. Professor Mallet’s Board direct thelr efforts solely to tho business of collecting specimens of minerals of all kinds, soils, cereals, fruits, timber, prepared animals, fishes, &c., native to Virginia, and also such manufac: tured’ products as will illustrate the leading industries of the State, It is the purpose of both these boards, m conjunction with the State Commissioner, Colonel! Hol- liday, of Winchester, and General Bagwell, his alter- nate, to appeal to the Legislature as soon as it meets to APPROPHIATE AT LEAST FIFTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS to defray necessary expenses attending the collection, arrangement and care of the State collection during the Centennial It is understood that Governor Kémper will in his message recommend this appropriation. General Imboden’s Board lately arranged with Mr. E. G. Booth, a Virginian, resident in Philadelphia, to erect a building in Fairmount Park, asa Virginia beadquar- tors. Mr. Booth voluntarily offered to do this generous act at his own personal expense, and when completed to place tne building in charge of the State Board for their uso during the Exhibition. Tho prospect now is that Virginia will occupy a cred- {table place in the great Exposition. Public sentiment was rather against participation in the Centennial till within the last six months, The temper in which the Virginians were received at the Bunker Hill Conten- nial has done much toward creating adesire to have the State fairly representod at Philadelphia, HOTEL ARRIVALS.
